He was never pro-Russia and sees himself as a defender of classical western virtues, so this isn't surprising at all.

-reads the "Relationships" section of his Wikipedia page-

Interesting. How does one develop this kind of delusion...

I think you meant to link to the "religion" section? Anyhow, I hate to defend BoJo, but there are worse role models than Pericles.

Johnson is a slimy tosspot, and his position on Russia is good only for self-serving reasons. Supporting Ukraine let him act out his little Churchill fantasy and distract from all of his domestic failings

Johnson's position on Ukraine is one of the few things where he did in fact show some strong leadership. Couldn't fault him for that.

He failed in a lot of other areas unfortunately.
